Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the mean of DMFT index of FIRST PERMANENT MOLARs in 12-year- old students of guidance schools in Zahedan.Method & Material: This descriptive cross sectional study was performed through an examination of FIRST PERMANENT MOLARs and a questionnaire filled by 600 students (300 boys, 300 girls) who were selected randomly.DMFT index of molars and their correlation with health behavior and family status were recorded. Data were analyzed using T-test, Chi-square and Pearson correlation.Results: The mean of DMFT index of FIRST PERMANENT MOLARs was 0.8:t1.l2. The mean of DMFT index in the boys was 0.91±1.19 and in the girls was 0.98:t1.03that were statistically significant (P=0.015). 56.3% of students were caries free. 91% of DMFT scores were belonged to decayed teeth, only 7% of caries teeth were filled, and 1% of caries teeth were missed. The number of first permanent decayed molar teeth in lower jaw (59.1%) was greater than the upper jaw (31.8%). The girls had more filled teeth (6.4%) than the boys (1.6%). Conclusion: 91% of DMFT scores were belonged to decayed teeth, so it is better to put more emphasis on significance of FIRST PERMANENT MOLAR teeth in educating programs of dental health.
